Forty-six whales stranded on a beach on the Indonesian island of Madura have died, while rescuers managed to push three back out to sea, the provincial governor said on Friday.
A rescue effort was launched on Thursday after dozens of pilot whales beached. Volunteers pushed some back out to sea.
“But some came back here, trying to find their mothers, though it turns out the mothers are dead,” East Java Governor Khofifah Indar Parawansa said.
